In the north of Sumatra lies a beautiful lake, Lake Toba. But most people don’t know that underneath there lies a sleeping giant. A monster that woke up about 75.000 years ago. The volcanic cloud was pushed to the West killing all life in South East Asia up to the Indian subcontinent due to the monsoon winds.
